No more online FSM's...
 
Should have seen the writing on the wall a month ago when the nicoclub FSM's all went down for a couple days. Unfortunately I didn't download ALL the FSM's like I should have but I do have a full copy of my 2006 coupe ones.

This link where the FSM's used to be says it all.

Well, I guess we'll just need your knowledge to answer more questions! Lol, wouldn't the FSMs be almost the same for the 03-07 coupe? I take it that it's also illegal to distribute these now that we have downloaded all the files? Nicoclub club was doing a good thing for a while. I bet nissan HATES Nissan Datascan

I use psedog's old link but that Avenue recently went down. Sad.

I wonder if we put up a poll to the community we could identify who has a downloaded copy of each model year, sedan and coupe. Then folks could just PM the person to have a copy emailed to them.

One of the first things that I did when I purchased my first infiniti a 2006 G35 6 speed sedan was to purchase the paper copies of the FSM. The four volumes weigh over 20 lbs and were well worth the money. I have other FSM's for other past vehicles that I no longer own.

For anyone that does a considerable amount of work on their vehicles these manuals will pay for themselves. They also prevent making stupid mistakes and provide a logical sequence for complex troubleshooting.

Yeah I printed off a physical copy, took about 7 reams of paper and 2 ink cartridges, the hard part was 3-hole punching them all :)

I've always just bought a membership at alldatadiy.com for all my cars. It's pretty cheap and you can usually find coupon codes.

Yes they were.

When I purchased the FSM for my 06 G35 I think i paid close to $300 for them

For anyone that does a lot of their own work and repairs the cost will shortly pay for itself.

I guess Nissan decided to no longer provide access to their FSM manuals for free.

You can no longer get full free access to the Washington Post, New York Times or The Wall Street Journal either.
